It seems like I overlooked this aspect,'' Ste thought. ''I guess I can''t rub salt in the wound for now.''
Then, another concern came to mind. "Would your mom be released without charges if they found out
that I''m not really injured?"
Without looking at her, Keegan calmly replied, "Well, the hotel staff identally injured themselves
while cleaning up the oil."
Ste was taken aback. ’The cleaning staff injured themselves?"
"Yeah." Keegan nced at her and continued, "Should I take you to the surveince room and show
you?"
Ste shrugged. "No. It was just a casual question."
Keegan observed the talisman she held tightly and felt a little irritated. "You''re getting water on my

neck,” he said.
Upon hearing this, Ste immediately wanted to switch hands, but Keegan continued, "Are you trying to
get my other side wet too?"
Ste did not reply.
"Put it in my pocket," Keegan said with indifference.
"But, won''t that make your pocket wet?"
"It''s fine. My clothes are thick," Keegan responded.
He spoke nonchntly as if it was a minor inconvenience.
He has already made his point clear earlier. So, he shouldn''t be jealous anymore, right?'' Ste
considered for a moment and followed his instructions, cing the talisman in his pocket.
Keegan told the driver to go, as they got into the car.
"Are you going to pick up your sister?" Ste asked.
Keegan replied, "Aldor is doing that."
"Why not have Aldor pick us up? Why specifically call another driver?"
"It''s just more convenient this way," Keegan exined.
"What do you mean? Aldor picked us up before."
Keegan nced at her and said, "Aldor probably wouldn''t enjoy having his boss around when he''s on a
date."
Ste was stunned. She opened her mouth in disbelief and only after a while did she say, "He''s your
employee. When you went missing, he faced pressure, rallied the team, and helped you maintain the
team''s spirit. How can you repay him by having him go on a date with your sister?"
"Should I call and ask him toe back?" asked Keegan.
"Well, there''s no need to be so direct."
Ste had more to say, but Keegan suddenly asked, "Did you go to the wishing well with him?"
What an abrupt change of topic,'' thought Ste.
Keegan had regained his memory, and given her understanding of him, he must have thoroughly
investigated what happened during that period. But, the specific details were probably not as clear to
him as they were to her.
It must have been difficult for him to hold back for so long, and he finally found a suitable opportunity to
ask.
"Sort of. We stayed on the hill for a few nights." She deliberately kept it vague.
Keegan was not very happy to hear that. "Aren''t you being a bit too oblivious?"
''Doesn''t she see how Marshall looks at her?’ he thought.
"I didn’t know you woulde back. Plus, you told me that if you were to die before me, and the days
of missing you became too painful, I should find someone to be with and love him well. You gave me
your blessing."
Keegan felt upset.
''Since when did I say that? I recall telling her that she could find someone else, but she mustn''t love
him more than me. I can''t believe she would take advantage of my amnesia and deceive me like this.
Has she been wanting to break up with me? Does she not want me anymore?''
